This article aims to evaluate the use of lean manufacturing practices, according to SAE J4000, in a supply chain of the pharmaceutical industry. The data were collected in four companies: a manufacturer, a distributor and two suppliers. The results show companies are aligned in only one of the six elements of the standard.

High crop production with limited energy resources is always the priority area of developing countries. Conventional agricultural experimenting and methods are time-consuming, challenging, laborious, intensive. Various developments experimental studies have been carried out for advancement in agriculture technologies. This study mainly focused on design development a unique high-efficiency seed...
